I ran my first invitational of the season today! It was at Cal Poly Pomona at the Bronco Invitational. I was very surprised at my time (18:41) which was a PR from last season. My season goal was to run sub 19:30 and I guess I did that today. At first, I was very nervous, since this course is close to Mt. Sac, but I later learned that the course was definitely easier. The course was very flat with a section where you passed by horses, which was nice. As I was running, some of the horses began to run beside me! I went to visit them and cheer on my teamates after my race. I came in 13th place.
